The Incheon Chinatown is the only Chinatown in Korea which developed naturally. With the opening of Incheon Port in 1883,Jogyeji-the old Chinese settlement - was created in 1884, and the business districts began to thrive in the 1900s. At that time, as ships piled between the area and Shantung, the number of Chinese in areas such as today's Bukseong0dong and Seonrin-dong began to increase. The bukseong-dong area came to be called "Cheonggwan Street". In addition,Chinese started selling food items, general goods, salt and grain while purchasing alluvial gold produced in Korea, commercing the expansion of their commercial influence. Cheongwan Street became the largest commercial district in Incheon as Chinese restaurants and trades established therselves in the area..

Although the Jajangmyeon that Koreans enjoy today has changed considerably over the years in terms of its ingredients and taste, It has its roots in a dish of China's Shandong region first introduced by Chinese migrants when Incheon Port first opened.
虽然炸酱面的口味已随着时代而改进和变化，它源于中国山东，当年来自山东的劳力工人，在仁川港口开港时将它带入了韩国。。

Incheon Port when Jajang-myeon was first created, It shows blue collar Chinese labourers who were working at the docks putting down their back sacks and having a simple meal of Shandong style " Zha jang mian ".
